Fontina is the symbol of agriculture in Italy's tiny, French-speaking Aosta Valley region. The cows that produce the milk for Fontina Val d'Aosta graze on high-altitude Alpine pastures dotted with wildflowers and native herbs. Fontina is a great cooking cheese, as it melts evenly without losing any flavor. Extremely aromatic (some might say "stinky"), Fontina is best noted for its value as a savory and fruity table cheese. Its slightly grassy flavor embodies the taste of a true raw milk cheese.

I can't find aged Fontina anywhere - thank goodness igourmet.com has it.... I lov it best on pizza with grilled chicken, red onion and kalamata olives.

very good

I had never heard of, tasted, or cooked with fontina before - had a recipe that called for it. The smell at first will knock you over, but the flavor is really good. The price and delivery were totally amazing - very good service!!

The best cheese Fontina Val d'Aosta DOP

This cheese came cold and when expected or a little earlier and is the best melting cheese and tasting cheese from Italy. Don't judge on the smell when you open it ignore and cook with it.

From alpine pasture

You can grasp a hint of the high meadows where the milk that originates this sublime cheese was churned out. Make a dipping sauce (fonduta)or use it as it is at room temperature with polenta to savor it at the best, add a side dish as sautéed mushrooms and stewed cabbage for a great main course.
